QUESTION: Mr. Armstrong; With Mexico pushing to nationalize mines claiming it’s targeting lithium, many see this law as opening the door to seizing all mines. You’ve gotten at all times warned that as we move closer and closer to 2032, governments will change into more authoritarian because they feel that they’re losing power. Do you see mines becoming a goal once they cancel the paper money and force everyone into government digital currency since gold shall be the apparent alternative?
Thanks for sharing your experience. I’m sorry for what they did to you, however the positive final result is first we now know you are usually not one among them, and secondly that we might never have had access to Socrates. You’ve gotten your sweet revenge for you are actually far more widely known than had you remained exclusive.
Keep that stiff upper lip, as they are saying.

ANSWER: Yes, I even have heard that persistently. I used to be shocked that just 3 months after my release I held a conference mainly because they desired to shoot the movie The Forecaster. I used to be totally stunned when people were flying in from around the globe. Once I asked why they got here, they said they desired to make sure that it was really me writing and never the federal government using my name. That was a surprise nevertheless it also shows how much people didn’t trust the federal government and that was 12 years ago.
RULE #1 – There aren’t any rules in times of crisis. The federal government will do whatever they need and it’s as much as the people to challenge them in court.
In Youngstown Sheet & Tube Co. v. Sawyer, also often known as The Steel Seizure Case, which made it to the Supreme Court where they ruled against President Truman by invalidating his seizure of the nation’s steel industry. In doing so, the Court limited the extent of the powers of the President of the USA under the Structure. That was then. Biden has done some outrageous actions all with executive orders that defeat Congress and any democratic system.
Back in 1917, President Wilson nationalized the railroad industry to maintain employees from striking during WWI. Truman could do something similar via Executive Order, but he had other options as well. In 1947 Congress passed the Taft-Hartley Act, which banned strategies to assist employees organize unions and limited the president’s power to seize industries during times of labor unrest. This allowed Truman to force employees back to work for 80 days while negotiations continued between labor and management. In 1948, an amendment was added to the Selective Service Act, allowing the president to seize industry facilities that were unable to fill their government orders for wartime products. The steel industry was not defaulting on its order obligations; nonetheless, as commander-in-chief, the president could make all military decisions for the USA, including mobilization efforts.
The story of the Youngstown decision begins with war. In 1950, the USA became involved within the Korean War when North Korean forces invaded the Republic of Korea. President Truman, with no Congressional declaration of war, sent troops to South Korea. In doing so, President Truman became the primary president to involve the USA in a significant war without specific authorization from Congress.
We must understand that that is the precedent. Biden will pull the identical thing and get us involved in World War III and can circumvent Congress if the Neocons think Congress is not going to declare an act of war. People will say but that’s unconstitutional. We ended up within the Korean War with no declaration of war either.
Herbert Hoover launched an investigation into the Great Crash based on a phone call where someone alleged that folks manipulated the market right down to discredit his administration. His investigations launched the SEC. In his memoirs, he apologized admitting that something the federal government will burn down the barn to a single rat.
They’ll seize gold mines and do the identical to cryptocurrencies. Anyone who thinks there’s some rule of law that can protect them – good luck. For this reason I like to recommend coins and NOT bars for precious metals. Just as within the EU, they’ve made it illegal for a hotel to just accept money, they may do the identical to cryptocurrencies and possibly gold bullion. Already in Europe, it’s ILLEGAL to pay for anything in excess of €10,000 in money.
Anyone who thinks that by some miracle cryptocurrency will run parallel to the federal government’s digital currencies once they eliminate money probably smoked an excessive amount of once they were in college. They are going to not tolerate any competition. As we approach 2032, they may change into far more aggressive and destroy every thing we thought was our basic human right. Just have a look at what Trudeau did in Canada to not the Truckers, but froze anyone’s account to even donated money to them.
We do NOT live in a free society nor in a democracy in any respect. Due to their fiscal mismanagement, they’ve killed the economy, and now to stop an rebellion when the people figure all of it out, they may change into increasingly more authoritarian.
Edward Gibbon wrote of Caracalla: Each
“distinction of all kinds soon became criminal. The possession of wealth stimulated the diligence of the informers; rigid virtue implied a tacit censure of the irregularities of Commodus; vital services implied a dangerous superiority of merit; and the friendship of the daddy at all times insured the aversion of the son. Suspicion was akin to proof; trial to condemnation. The execution of a substantial senator was attended with the death of all who might lament or revenge his fate; and when Commodus had once tasted human blood, he became incapable of pity or remorse”
(Book 1, Chapter 4).
On April eighth, 217AD, Caracalla was traveling to go to a temple near Carrhae in southern Turkey. On his journey, he stopped briefly to urinate. A soldier quietly approached Caracalla and stabbed him to death. Such is the fate of tyrants. When the military realizes that the enemy is inside, they may eventually turn and defend the people. That’s what history offers as a very important lesson. They’ll do every thing to stop Trump from becoming president because he is just not a politician and now knows the sport. He would fire all of the Neocons and they’ll sooner assassinate him than relinquish the facility they’ve seized under Biden. They’ve begun WWIII against Russia and China with no declaration of war as was the case against North Korea.
